Just switch on "Allow remote Rsync server to back up data to NAS" which can be found under "SystemTools" &gt; "Remote Replication". Thanks to &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;seye&lt;/span&gt; for this hint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a little new device in my tech zoo. It's a QNAP NAS Server, the &lt;a href="http://www.qnap.com/pro_detail_feature.asp?p_id=67"&gt;TS-101&lt;/a&gt;. Nifty little thing because it can act as a multimedia streamer (for iTunes and UPnP clients - uses Twonky inside for the latter), backup storage (works even with Apple's Time Machine if you don't mind &lt;a href="http://www.readynas.com/?p=253"&gt;hacking a little bit&lt;/a&gt;), web server, download agent, etc. pp.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What annoyed me was, that even with &lt;a href="http://www.qnap.com/download_detail.asp?pl=1&amp;amp;p_mn=TS-101&amp;amp;ct_name=Firmware"&gt;the latest firmware&lt;/a&gt; one cannot use rsync directly to backup files. In fact there is an rsync daemon running on the TS-101 but it is solely used by QNAP to sync between their NAS devices. If you try to connect to it, you'll probably get an authentication error.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What actually is activated with the latest firmware is telnet access. So here we go. :-)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Looking at the processes running on the TS-101 ("&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'courier new';"&gt;ps | grep rsync"&lt;/span&gt;) one can see an rsync daemon (&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'courier new';"&gt;"/usr/bin/rsync --daemon --sever-mode=1"&lt;/span&gt;). Never saw the &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'courier new';"&gt;--server-mode&lt;/span&gt; option before and the man pages on my Mac do not list it either. So let's do &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'courier new';"&gt;"rsync --daemon --help"&lt;/span&gt; on the TS-101 which yields:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;[...]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;--sever-mode=mode       0:Normal, &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1:QNAP in daemon-mode&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;[...]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Aha! Kill the old daemon, launch a new one in server-mode 0 (&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'courier new';"&gt;"/usr/bin/rsync --daemon --sever-mode=0"&lt;/span&gt;) and try to connect from the Mac:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;[...]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;@ERROR: invalid uid admin&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;[...]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bummer. Hmmm. An rsync daemon gets it's configuration from a file named rsyncd.conf. On the TS-101 it is located in /etc/conf. The first lines look like this:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;uid = admin&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;gid = administrators&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;[...]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Strangely the official man page for the rsyncd.conf file does not mention setting uid and gid outside of the modules (do &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'courier new';"&gt;"man rsyncd.conf"&lt;/span&gt; on a Unix system). But it seems clear to me that this uid/gid should at least exist on the system - which is not the case on a brand new TS-101.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So one could probably create an account named admin. I just edited the rsyncd.conf and changed admin to administrator (the latter uid does exist).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now it works!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;(Note: No need to reboot the TS-101, because rsync reads its config file every time a connection attempt is made.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So finally we can make backups between a machine with an rsync client and the rsync daemon on the TS-101 (without using an ssh tunnel which is another possibility that is slower and IMHO not necessary in home networks).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What remains open?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;After rebooting the TS-101 the rsync daemon is running in mode 1 again. Found the place to change this (/etc/init.d/rsyncd.sh) permanently but&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;It seems that the files underneath /etc get overwitten which the original ones from time to time.

Wenn es der falsche ist (also nicht der, den meine Firma bevorzugt - hat Apple an sowas gedacht oder glauben die, ganze Firmen werden wegen des iPhone zu einem neuen Provider wechseln?), dann wird's wohl nix.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aber das Thema dieses Posts ist ein anderes. Ich frage mich ja schon lange, wie diese relativ kleine Firma Apple so viele parallele Projekte aus dem Boden stampfen kann? Da haben wir wie eh und je die Kernbereiche Computerhardware und Betriebssystem. On top kommen iPod und iTunes. Dann AppleTV und andere Peripherie. Die iApps (iPhoto et al). Die Pro-Apps (Exposure, ...). Das iPhone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Das hinterläßt Spuren insofern, als das man sich bezüglich Bedienlogik zuweilen an Produkte aus Redmond erinnert fühlt. :-(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zwei Beispiele:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;iTunes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Die neueren Versionen sind ganz schön überladen. Kein Wunder, das Ding soll ja auch zum Zentrum des Digital-Home werden. Es kommt z.B. unaufgefordert in den Vordergrund, wenn man einen iPod anschließt. Zusätzlich hüpft das Dock-Icon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gestern wollte ich genauer einstellen, welche Episoden von verschiedenen Podcasts auf meinem iPod landen. Dabei wurde ich auf den kleinen Haken vor jedem Eintrag (Musikstück, Video, Podcastepisode, ...) aufmerksam. Es korrespondiert mit dem Kontextmenüeintrag "Auswahl (de)aktivieren"... Und? Was heisst "(de)aktivieren"? In der Hilfe findet sich nichts dazu. Intuitiv erschließt sich der Zweck auch nicht. In Internetforen wird die Bedeutung diskutiert. Und das bei einem so zentralen Bedienkonzept. Autsch!&lt;br /&gt;Des Rätsels Lösung: deaktivierte Einträge werden z.B. beim Springen zum vorherigen/nächsten Eintrag (&lt;&lt; / &gt;&gt;) übersprungen. Und man kann solche Einträge beim Synchronisieren mit dem iPod auslassen. Das klingt für mich nach einem überladenen Bedienelelement. Und wenn man mehr als einen iPod synchronisiert, dann gilt das Häkchen (da es ja am Eintrag sitzt) für alle iPods gleichermaßen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Spotlight&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Das ist nun richtig krass. Neulich wollte ich ein ganzes (externes) Volume von der Indizierung ausschließen (nämlich das 1:1-Backup meines Boot-Volumes). Dem gewieften Shell-Hacker kommt sofort ein &lt;span style="font-family:courier new;"&gt;sudo mdutil -E -i off /Volumes/VOLUMENAME&lt;volumename&gt;&lt;volumen-name&gt;&lt;/volumen-name&gt;&lt;/volumename&gt;&lt;/span&gt; in den Sinn. Geht ganz gut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Der normale User ("Mac - the computer for the rest of us") muss folgenden Knoten in sein Hirn bekommen, wenn er einen ähnlichen Effekt erhalten will: er öffnet einfach die Spotlight-Einstellungen, Tabreiter "Privatsphäre" und fügt dort das Volume hinzu. Zunächst denkt man vielleicht "logisch!".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aber halt! Sind solche Einstellungen nicht für gewöhnlich user-bezogen? Was ist, wenn meine Frau den Rechner nutzt und das Volume gemountet ist, wird es dann trotzdem indiziert? Nur für sie? Nein, denn der Eintrag taucht "by magic" auch in der Privatspäre anderer Nutzer auf! Hä?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Es kommt noch besser: wenn das Volume nicht gemountet ist, dann ist der Eintrag gar nicht sichtbar. Wenn das Volume aber in einer Sitzung (?) einmal gemountet war, dann bleibt es auch nach dem unmounten unter Privatspäre sichtbar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Erwartungstreue anybody?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich hoffe, dass sich dieser Trend zur Windowizierung nicht fortsetzt.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35670833-8737267917360611036?l=zechblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zechblog.blogspot.com/feeds/8737267917360611036/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35670833&amp;postID=8737267917360611036' title='2 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35670833/posts/default/8737267917360611036'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35670833/posts/default/8737267917360611036'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zechblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/das-iphone-hinterlt-spuren.html' title='Das iPhone hinterläßt Spuren'/><author><name>Boris Zech</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07188774095202796030</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FpGdnQPyj1Q/ScZdcAZERxI/AAAAAAAAAAU/xbyXKPHGLdg/S220/Image_small.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35670833.post-116026268364629111</id><published>2006-10-08T01:08:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-10-08T01:19:51.856+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Mein erster Blogeintrag</title><content type='html'>Ja, wie langweilig.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nachdem ich eben jede Menge Probleme mit &lt;a href="http://wordpress.com/"&gt;wordpress.com&lt;/a&gt; hatte (Passwort kam nicht per eMail, dann waren die Administrationsseiten wegen eines Redirect-Fehlers nicht aufrufbar), bin ich nun bei blogger.com gelandet.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35670833-116026268364629111?l=zechblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zechblog.blogspot.com/feeds/116026268364629111/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35670833&amp;postID=116026268364629111' title='0 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35670833/posts/default/116026268364629111'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35670833/posts/default/116026268364629111'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zechblog.blogspot.com/2006/10/mein-erster-blogeintrag.html' title='Mein erster Blogeintrag'/><author><name>Boris Zech</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07188774095202796030</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FpGdnQPyj1Q/ScZdcAZERxI/AAAAAAAAAAU/xbyXKPHGLdg/S220/Image_small.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
